I was tired of my dim yellow lights. After pulling the wires I noticed the plugs were heavily corroded and I had some nicks in the wire. It was probably time for an upgrade. I used the guide from go.jeep-xj.info with a few changes.
Some of the things I wanted to accomplish during this upgrade: no restrictions on bulbs, change to an H4 E-Code housing, and a removable harness. Since I don’t have a battery, the radiator is missing, and the header panel is not attached it made things much easier. I ordered the relays and ceramic H4 plugs from Susquehanna Motor Sports and I think the wire came from jegs.
I probably have another week untill I finish my engine so I haven't been able to test anything yet.
I was going to attach the cables to the standoff first but I changed my mind I’m going directly on the battery.
A little wire comparison
To crimp the plugs I had to modify my crimper
